Purpose

A company dedicated to innovation and fun, teaming up with RYDE was the perfect way to promote themselves during the 2016 Summer X Games. Traxxas wanted to provide fun branded rides for the Traxxas Athletes and Team, Top X Games Athletes, and top Executives while standing out to the masses in the downtown area.

Execution

We created 6 - Traxxas branded vehicles that were on call throughout the weekend. With staging areas at every X Games sponsored hotel, RYDE was the go to mode of downtown transportation for every athlete and attendee of the event. Each night in downtown Austin, there was a different X Games after party sponsored by Harley Davidson, Monster Energy, Rockstar Energy or RedBull. Traxxas ran the carts as a free shuttle from each of the sponsored hotels to and from each sponsored party. Giving the athletes and VP’s not only a safe ride home but a truly memorable, VIP experience each night.
